    local, home daily for most. if within a 150 air mile radius of the point you pick up the truck NO ELD or log is required.

    Wherever you are at out of hours right there you sit and stay. You do not move the whole 34.

    I am accustomed to staying out most of a year. Then staying home a winter. OR... in specific situations like flatbed I'll spend 5 or 6 months on I-10 over a whole winter into the new spring running pipe and chain back and forth.

    It could also mean that they run you so hard that you will be forced to take a 34 every week.
    No matter where you are at the time.

    You do not give enough details as to the context.
     
    Lav-25 Thanks this.

    34 hours rest time you pick the time and the place then reset your clock .

    The time and place usually picks you, not the other way, if you run your time out.
     
    Lav-25 and Odin's Rabid Dog Thank this.
